About the Book
“A compact death sonata…crisp and clear…Davis has put more fine writing and sense into these unsettling pages than you’d have thought possible.”
—Kirkus (starred)
“The novel itself—in its startling brevity, clarity, and simplicity—is like a suicide note. And the reader—like a loved-one who finds it—shivers at its cold touch, then gradually compassion overwhelms.”
“Suicide Note is a marvelous stretch of writing—compelling, taut, utterly absorbing.”
—Wright Morris.
